Seed potatoes are down % cents per
barrel.
Kalamazoo celery is out of market, but
magnificent southern celery is being re-
ceived. Being larger, 1t sells at 5 per
bunch.
FINANCIAL.
During the past week the New York
stock market was fairly active, with a
much better tone and feeling and an
advancing tendency in prices. The gen
eral news and conditions were in the
main orable, aud the depressing infiu-
ences involved in the strikes, the inter-
state law and the European markets
appear to have lost their force
The activity and strength manifested,
seem, however, TO be largely due
to manipulation on large scale
by bull pools and large operators who re-
Gently have been doing little in the mar
ket but who have been accum ulating
stocks in the recent depression. The
bear interest seems to have been consid-
era0ly reduced and but little irducement
exists for activity on that side, but there
is still a sufficiently large short interest
outstanding TO aid the Dull tactics. Pub
lie participation is still very limited,
though it is thought that there is already
ali improvement in that respect and that
little encouragement Is needed to bring
about decided widening of the market.
